MONDAY EVENING, JULY 24, 1916
APPEAL FOR DESTITUTE.
As anticipated in these columns Satur
day, the call has come for aid for the strick
en people of Western North Carolina,
where flooded streams and broken dams
behind which millions of gallons of water
were stored, carried homes, -and all other
earthly possessions of the unfortunate res
idents of the devastated area before them.
Thousands of our western neighbors are
without the necessities of life, and must
depend upon the bounty of their more for
tunate brothers of this section of the
State. .&1S.!.HEM
Elsewhere in today's Free Press appears
the proclamation of Governor Craig, call
ing on the people of the State to aid the
sufferers. A relief committee has been ap
pointed. Editor E. E. Britton of the Ra
leigh News and Observer is the chairman ;
N. J. Rouse represents Kinston on the com
mittee. Mayor Pro Tern Douglass received
in urgent appeal from Chairman Brittor
his morning asking for aid, and an appeal
to the people of Kinston, signed Ty Mr.
Rouse of the State Committee, and Mayor
Douglass for the city, appears also on the
front page today. Mr. Douglass solicited
subscriptions this morning, and the list of
those responding appears also in the news
columns.
The need is immediate. Contributions
should be sent in at once. The Free Press
will be glad to receive any donations and
transmit them to the committee. Mr.
Rouse will, of course, accept all contribu
tions, and Mayor Douglass will likewise re
ceive money for the sufferers.
Kinston cannot turn.-a, deaf ear to this
appeal from their fellow North Carolini-
ms to the west. Let the response be hear
ty and liberal.
